Description

  The present invention relates to a method for controlling a power generation device when power generation is stopped, in which a boiler is cooled when the power generation device is stopped.

  The power generation device of the power plant is operated according to the demand for electricity, and the power generation device may be stopped at midnight or on weekends when demand is low. At that time, the combustion of the boiler is stopped, but when the combustion is stopped, a rapid drop in the boiler temperature occurs. Such rapid cooling of the boiler is a cause of failure, so it is necessary to cool slowly when power generation is stopped.

  For this reason, conventionally, when the power generator is stopped, the cooling is performed by adjusting the combustion condition while igniting some burners so that the boiler is not rapidly cooled.

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a state in which the boiler is cooled with the burner ignited according to the conventional method.

  When the steam turbine 18 is stopped, the feed water is circulated to the evaporation pipe 16 and the primary superheater 17 provided in the boiler 1 while fuel is sent from the fuel supply device 3 to a part of the burners 2a and 2b and combustion is continued. By doing so, the boiler 1 is cooled.

  The water to be circulated here is steam and drain from the flash tank 11, preheats water in the deaerator 13 sent from the condenser 12, and warms the water in the evaporator 16 in the boiler 1. And is circulated through the primary superheater 17.

  After adjusting the combustion of the burners 2a and 2b so that the temperature drop rate is about 110 ° C./H, the temperature of the primary superheater inlet is lowered to 320 to 270 ° C. and lowered to a predetermined temperature. The burners 2a and 2b are turned off and the boiler is tripped.

FIG. 4 is a performance diagram showing a result of slow cooling of the boiler when power generation is stopped by a conventional method, and is measured at the inlet of the primary superheater 17. Since the burners 2a and 2b are partially ignited, the temperature of the boiler is gradually lowered.

  When the boiler is cooled while a part of the burner according to the conventional method is burned, naturally, fuel is necessary. This is not used for power generation, but is a waste of fuel, which is costly and leads to depletion of resources.

  Moreover, since there is much quantity of the water to circulate, the burden of a water supply pump etc. becomes large and has the subject that the operating cost at the time of cooling becomes high.

  The present invention includes a boiler that supplies steam to a flash tank, a flash tank that supplies drain to the condenser, supplies drain and steam to the deaerator, and a condenser that supplies condensate to the deaerator. A deaerator for supplying water to the boiler, controlling all the burners to extinguish fire, and increasing the amount of drain supplied from the flash tank to the deaerator, and the condenser is the deaerator. The water supplied to the vaporizer is heated to a high temperature, and the water in the deaerator is sent to the boiler to gradually cool the boiler.

  In the present invention, the drain supply amount is controlled by controlling the deaerator heating drain valve in the opening direction to increase the drain supply amount to the deaerator.

  Furthermore, the present invention is characterized in that the amount of drain supply to the deaerator is increased by controlling the deaerator heating drain valve so that the deaerator pressure opens to 0.1 MPa.

  Furthermore, the present invention is characterized in that the opening degree of the deaerator heating drain valve is controlled to be more open than during operation, and the temperature drop rate of the boiler is maintained at approximately 110 ° C./hour.

  Furthermore, the present invention controls the feed water flow rate control valve of the feed water pump in the closing direction, reduces the amount of water sent from the deaerator to the boiler, and maintains the temperature drop rate of the boiler at approximately 110 ° C./hour. Features.

  According to the present invention, the boiler can be gradually cooled when power generation is stopped without using any fuel. This is because the degree of opening of the deaerator heating drain valve is controlled and the amount of drain supplied from the flash tank to the deaerator is increased so that the water in the deaerator becomes high temperature and is circulated in the boiler.

  In addition, since it is possible to circulate high-temperature water in the boiler, the amount of water to be circulated can be reduced, reducing the burden on the feed water pump and condensate pump, etc., and reducing the operating cost when cooling the boiler. .

  Furthermore, the present invention realizes gradual cooling of the boiler only by controlling the amount of drain supplied to the deaerator, and has an advantage that the existing power generator can be used as it is without adding a new device or the like.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram illustrating a method for controlling a power generation apparatus when power generation is stopped according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a record of cooling the boiler by applying the present invention.

  With reference to FIG. 1, the control method of the electric power generating apparatus at the time of the electric power generation stop by this invention is demonstrated.

  The power generator used in the present invention is mainly composed of a combustion line, an evaporation line, and a water supply line.

  The combustion line includes a fuel supply device 3 and burners 2a and 2b. Fuel is sent to the burners 2a and 2b via the fuel supply device 3, and the boiler 1 is combusted.

  The evaporation line includes a economizer 15, an evaporation pipe 16, and a primary superheater 17.

  The economizer 15 is disposed at the combustion gas outlet 19, and one end thereof is connected to the water supply pump 14, and the other end is connected to the evaporation pipe 16. Water from the deaerator 13 is supplied to the economizer 15 via the water supply pump 14. The economizer 15 preheats water by using the heat of the combustion gas 20 generated by the combustion of the boiler 1.

  The evaporation pipe 16 is disposed in the boiler 1, and one end is connected to the economizer 15 and the other end is connected to the primary superheater 17. The water sent from the economizer 15 is converted into steam by the combustion heat of the boiler 1 in the evaporation pipe 16 and sent to the primary superheater 17.

  The primary superheater 17 is installed in the boiler 1. One end of the primary superheater 17 is connected to the evaporation pipe 16, and the other end is bifurcated to pass through the flash tank 11 and the secondary superheater 31, and the steam turbine 18. Is connected to each. The primary superheater 17 and the secondary superheater 31 produce superheated steam in order to improve the thermal efficiency of the steam generated in the evaporator tube 16 and to reduce erosion due to water droplets adhering to the steam turbine 18. The superheated steam is mainly sent to the steam turbine 18, and is sent to the condenser 12 after operating a generator (not shown) connected to the steam turbine 18. A part of the superheated steam is sent to the flash tank 11.

  The water supply line includes a flash tank 11, a deaerator heating steam valve 21, a deaerator heating drain valve 22, a condenser 12, a condensate pump 23, a deaerator 13, and a water supply pump 14.

  One end of the flash tank 11 is connected to the primary superheater 17, and the other end is connected to the condenser 12, the deaerator heating steam valve 21, and the deaerator superheat drain valve 22. The flash tank 11 is installed in the startup bypass system of the boiler, and separates the steam-water mixture generated in the primary superheater 17 into steam and drain. And while mainly sending drain to the condenser 12, the vapor | steam and a part of drain are sent to the deaerator 13. FIG.

  One end of each of the deaerator heating steam valve 21 and the deaerator heating drain valve 22 is connected to the flash tank 11, and the other end is connected to the deaerator 13. The opening degree of the deaerator heating steam valve 21 and the deaerator heating drain valve 22 is individually controlled by a predetermined pressure in the deaerator 13. When the pressure in the deaerator 13 is lower than a predetermined pressure, the deaerator heating steam valve 21 and the deaerator heating drain valve 22 operate in the opening direction, and when the pressure exceeds the predetermined pressure, they are fully closed. The steam and drain from the flash tank 11 are sent into the deaerator 13 according to the opening degree of the deaerator heating steam valve 21 and the deaerator superheated drain valve 22, respectively.

  The condenser 12 has one end connected to the condensate pump 23 and the other connected to the steam turbine 18 and the flash tank 11. The steam that drives the steam turbine 18 and the drain discharged from the flash tank 11 flow into the condenser 12. The steam that has flowed in is cooled by the cooling water circulating in the condenser 12 and returned to the water again. The water in the condenser 12 is sent to the deaerator by the condensate pump 23.

  One end of the deaerator 13 is connected to the water supply pump 14, and the other end is connected to the deaerator heating steam valve 21, the deaerator heating drain valve 22, and the condensate pump 23. The water sent from the condensate pump 23 is directly heated by mixing with the steam and drain sent through the deaerator heating steam valve 21 and the deaerator heating drain valve 22, and oxygen and carbon in the water Non-condensable gas such as gas is removed. The water from which the non-condensable gas has been removed is sent again into the boiler 1 by the feed water pump 14.

  Then, the control method of the electric power generating apparatus at the time of the electric power generation stop by this invention is demonstrated.

  The fuel supply device 3 to the burners 2a and 2b is stopped, and combustion of the boiler 1 is stopped. Since fuel is not used at all, fuel is unnecessary.

  In order to stop the steam turbine 18, the steam discharged from the primary superheater 17 is sent to the flash tank 11 and separated into steam and drain. Since steam is not sent to the steam turbine 18, there is no inflow of steam from the steam turbine 18 side to the condenser 12.

  The steam flowing into the flash tank 11 is sent into the deaerator according to the opening degree of the deaerator heating steam valve 21. The opening degree of the deaerator heating steam valve 21 is controlled to a deaerator pressure 0.05 MPa, and a predetermined amount of steam is sent to the deaerator 13 according to the opening degree of the deaerator heating steam valve 21. As the pressure in the deaerator increases and approaches 0.05 MPa, the deaerator heating steam valve 21 operates in the closing direction, and the amount of steam supplied from the flash tank 11 to the deaerator 13 decreases. When the pressure in the deaerator exceeds 0.05 MPa, the deaerator heating steam valve 21 is fully closed, and the amount of steam supplied from the flash tank 11 to the deaerator 13 decreases.

  The drain in the flash tank 11 is sent to the condenser 12 and also sent to the deaerator 13 through the deaerator heating drain valve 22. The opening degree of the deaerator heating drain valve 22 is controlled by the deaerator pressure, and the amount of drain sent to the deaerator 13 is adjusted. Here, the opening degree of the deaerator heating drain valve 22 is controlled by a deaerator pressure of 0.1 MPa. The deaerator pressure is set higher than that during normal operation, and even if the pressure in the deaerator 13 increases, the deaerator heating drain valve 22 is in the opening direction, the drain is supplied, and the deaerator 13 is supplied. The amount of drain supplied to the plant will be increased from the conventional level.

  In the deaerator 11, the water sent through the condensate pump 23 is mixed with the steam and drain sent from the flash tank 11. The drain in the flash tank 11 is hot, and by increasing the amount of drain supplied into the deaerator 13, the drain ratio in the deaerator 13 increases and the temperature of the water can be raised. .

  The drain supply amount is increased, and the water in the deaerator 13 is circulated through the evaporation pipe 16 and the primary superheater 17 provided in the boiler 1 as hot water than before, thereby stopping the combustion of the boiler 1. Also, it is possible to prevent the temperature from dropping suddenly and gradually drop it.

  Moreover, in the structure of this invention, the opening degree control of the deaerator heating drain valve 22 is made into deaerator pressure 0.1MPa, and since the temperature fall rate of the boiler 1 can be maintained at about 110 degreeC, it will lead to a failure of a boiler. There is no.

  Further, by increasing the amount of drain supplied to the deaerator 13, it is possible to increase the temperature of the water circulated in the boiler 1, thereby reducing the water circulated in the boiler 1. By increasing the water in the deaerator 13, the temperature drop rate of the boiler 1 can be maintained at approximately 110 ° C./hour even with a small amount of water circulation. As a result, the burden on the water supply pump 14 and the condensate pump 23 is reduced. The water supply amount is adjusted by adjusting the water supply flow rate control valve of the water supply pump 23. When the water supply flow rate control valve is controlled in the closing direction, the water supply flow rate decreases.

  FIG. 2 is a performance diagram showing a result of gradually cooling the boiler when power generation is stopped by applying the present invention. The temperature was measured at the inlet temperature of the primary superheater 17.

  The temperature does not decrease much until about 30 minutes after the power generation is stopped. It is presumed that the temperature of the drain is high immediately after the boiler stops and the amount of drain supply is increased. After 30 minutes, the temperature has gradually dropped. It can be seen that after the boiler stops, the temperature of the drain gradually decreases, and the boiler 1 is slowly cooled.

  From this measurement result, even if the combustion of the boiler is stopped, the boiler can be sufficiently cooled by increasing the amount of drain supplied.

It is a schematic block diagram which shows the control method of the electric power generating apparatus at the time of the electric power generation stop by this invention. It is the performance figure which applied the control method of the electric power generating apparatus at the time of the electric power generation stop by this invention, and cooled the boiler.
